However, certain factors can render a non-compete agreement unenforceable, such as if it is considered unreasonable in time or geographic scope, or if the reason for termination, such as the employer discontinuing a line of business, invalidates the agreement.
Fortunately, when it comes to the enforceability of either type of non-compete, there is one broad legal principal that applies to both. In general, for any non-compete to be enforceable it must be reasonable in time and geographical scope. The time aspect deals with the duration of the non-compete period.

Agreement is for too long a time period: For employees, a period of less than 6 months is presumed valid, and over 2 years is presumed invalid. In between, the employer will have to prove that the time period is reasonable. However, most courts will assume that agreements up to 2 years are reasonable.
Under case law, non-competes will only be enforceable if they are no wider than reasonably necessary to protect a legitimate interest (e.g. protection of confidential information or customer contacts) and are not contrary to the public interest.
